the paper chase - dying with decent music

Maybe better you than me
You’re much weaker, you’re more clumsy
When I forfeit my patience to you
So maybe you’ve had too much wine
Piggy’s flushed up ankles swell up as my lady works the room

“Your sideburns always smell like sex”
Little sister, your big brother, “the fuck” won’t be smothering you
Or calling to his friends back east
“Oh my hostess, oh my pick up, oh my dreadful… my white slave”
Let them die while some decent music plays

With my shit shoe stumbles that’s me dirty nails and awful thoughts
I’ll use the words used up on commercials
Like such sharp boys like to write songs, music and quick lines
This feeling I can’t confine that to a rhyme
But maybe I can if I see you on the other side

See you on the other side where we would be released
I’d sell out everything if I could find such peace
See you on the other side where we would be released
I’d sell out everyone if I could find such peace
I will be free

6sv in chi-town, part 1

we made our arrival here yesterday around 2.30 in the afternoon. wesaid what up, raged with this beast dog in the park for like a half hour, then peaced out on a "mission." we found all the necessities for a week stay with a few blocks, grocery, packy (as the conneticuts call the liquor store), laundromat, and our new Homebase, F. O'mahony's. we stepped into the first bar that looked like they charged under $5 a drink only to realize we were in boystown at an irish gay pub. this was actually kind of awesome. the dude's were chill as fuck and we got a few rounds of jameson and some free beers for being the out-of-towner straight dudes who could, indeed, kick it.
from here, we stumbled off and, in as touristy of a fashion as possible, asked pretty much every stranger we passed where a train was. finally, this chick helped us get tickets and board the redline towards downtown. as soon as we got off, we stopped at a seven-eleven (it's all spelled out here), and grabbed some 40s. again, we proceeded to ask every (chill-looking) stranger we passed where the best place to drink in public was, and eventually were directed to Millenium Park. it was clearly too light out still to be smashing out king cobra in plain view, so we hopped this little fence and ran back into these tightly packed-in trees in the middle of the park and started schwillin'.
as we approached bottoms and had progressively become drunker and hence louder, we got suprise attacked by park security. so we took our lecture, played the stupid tourist card (which for some reason worked in this situation?), and dumped the ass of our drinks out and were escorted out of the trees. but from here, security just sent us on our way and we walked down to the ice rink. $10 holler to go ice skating all night in downtown chicago? fuck yeah, i'm there. obviously, the loop gets a little boring after a while, and my body could only take so many failed hockey-stop attempts. so we set out to find another train.
while waiting for the train thats going to take us back to boystown, we strike up conversation with two girls from conneticut. they've got their noses up their asses, but we're bullshitting, so we go with it. they end up getting off the train with us, and instead of stopping to get food to cook, we stop at a liquor store for a case of beer and a bottle of jack. whatever happened, happened. i'm not saying she was fat, dude, and i ain't saying you hit it. i'd like to just leave that out in the open for everyone to decide themselves. ha
haven't really been taking a whole lot of photos or video, but we've got a whole week left, so...
bam.
this has been a 6sv report from the windy city.
over and out.

Thee Oh Sees (to put a hyped-up band in perspective)

by j bux

i'll be completely honest here. i often write off a band that i might actually like i might actually like based on admittedly-shallow principles. however, in this case, i feel i am completely justified.

when you hop on the two-man noise band train late in the game like this:

and are at any point involved in a project like this:

and then follow up with crapola like this:

there is NO POSSIBLE WAY to maintain any
sort of credibility.

i'll be honest, when i was a kid (15 or
16 years old, i'm, like, totally way
more mature now,) i really liked Hella
and Lightning Bolt and all those other
two-man rock-set-up style noisier rock
bands. Load Records was pretty good
about keep those types of bands on their
label for a while and i was really into
it for a while. Pink and Brown were
buddies w/ Lightning Bolt and it was not
illogical for John Dwyer to do that style
of project because it seemed like most
artists in the Providence, RI / Fort
Thunder scene were doing that type of
shit. i was really into it and thought
they were cool. after Dwyer made a cameo
in "The Power of Salad and Milkshakes"
(a Lightning Bolt tour documentary,) i
became a little skeptical of his sincerity
and dedication to innovation and
experimentation. can we say flavor of the
week? Dwyer's newly acquired hype reveals
the abominable truth that anyone can
write shitty pop songs, use 'weird'
effects and shitty microphones, and turn
them into a psychedelic-freak-folk trendy
cluster-fuck sensation. i guess i should
probably listen to a couple more songs...

i guess i should probably listen to a
couple more songs...

rodney mullen on That's Incredible

ok, this is by far the most ridiculous skate clip i've ever watched. peep the one-footed 360° frotside shuvit at 1:30 in this clip. it'll change your life. he does a ton of other gnarly tricks, but that one stuck out for some reason. a true mad genius of flatland fuckery.

HPHP @ central city recording

with their first full length in the final stages of editing before release, hurtpeople hurtpeople of columbus, ohio have some serious planning to do. the album release show, April.2.2010, will be held at the Gnar Gate facilities at 527 E Hudson St. for those unfamiliar with the Gnar, it is actually unaccessible from Hudson. the entrance can be found at the end of E Tompkins St, on the service road along the railroad tracks. this warehouse space has been the home of many bands over the years, as well as played host to some of the coolest parties in this city.

joining HPHP for this event will be Native(IN), and New Creases(OH). stay tuned for more info on this show and don't forget to mark your calendars. this will be one of your last chances to catch hurt people hurt people before they disappear on tour.

cex - drive off a mountain

shit you missed in columbus hip-hop: PART SIX

notes:

1. al clearly doesn't have an unlimited calling plan.

2. the average cell phone user uses 459 minutes per month.

3. verizon wireless offers a plan $80 per month that would allow al
to talk for just under twice that amount of time.

4. al is well spoken and likely wouldn't need that amount of time to
convey any message to any number of people in a given month.

BLUEPRINT

stay tuned for more shit you missed in columbus hip-hop.

imagine you just moved into a house with vague acquaintances. you've got this big ass bin full of blankets and pillows and other soft things, and you come home one night to find it MIA. you look all around and make your way for the vacant bedroom. when you knock, 5 voices chime in, "hellooooo?!"
you open the door and ask your roommates and their friends if they know where all the blankets went. after you ask, you realize they're all on ecstasy and lying in a big puddle of people and blankets under a pile of blankets on top of a pile of blankets, everyone cuddling each other and a pillow. you try to get mad for a second, but everyone's smiling too hard.
